No need for any of you to be sad as it is a happy day for me. (Besides, I can always unretire, right?
Anyway...bye for now. I will miss you indies!!

Yes...it's true. I have decided to retire...from Independent Providers!! I'm only going to AMPs from now on. No more scheduling hassles, faces that don't match ads, services promised but not delivered, indie drama, and the baggage that comes with it. From now on, I will only accept services from mostly non-English speaking 40 year olds who look like they are 20 but act like they are 35.

But I did wish to write and say that I hope that you keep posting here in this forum. I do appreciate your posts a lot.

Since June 1st, I've been to 5 indies.
One (Chicago) was good service, but overpriced.
Three were bad sessions...in that services were promised but not delivered. (1 BP ad, two ECCIE members)
One NCNS (ECCIE member)
Lots of bitching about RL situations by provider...painful to the ears.
The four sessions combined cost me $1400.
Over 12 hours of my time was wasted.
I've been to AMP 8 times and seen 4 different women.
One session was mediocre, four were very good, and three were so good, that I still remember them. (Cindy, Tiffany, June)
One of the other three couldn't speak 5 words of English yet still figured out how to do the services the indies did not do. (even after specific instruction)
Some bitching about RL situations by provider. (they are women, after all)
I never have to pay more than $200
I always get a bottle of water for the road.
Maybe 10 minutes of wasted time waiting for the girl to finish another session.
Seems like a pretty easy decision for me. Originally Posted by timothe

timeframe: jun 2011 - aug 22 2001
visits: indy - 4, amps - 8
and you are willing to switch over to amps based on 4 visits?
it's your money and your choices.
but i wouldnt think that 4 visits is a representative sample of the deliteful possibilities that exist in dallas or elsewhere. Originally Posted by pmdelites

I discover her schedule 4 hours to 2 days later when she returns my call, PM, email, or text. Then, we have to align schedules.This is one of the primary reasons I don't see indies anymore either. If I have the desire to see a certain AMP girl, usually a call an hour ahead and I'm golden. If it's an AMP girl I know well, a call or text to her direct line and it's usually less than an hour.
